FAQ regarding QPR and ES237 reporting

How do I decide which program team to use when a program is delivered to youth?

Whenever you deliver a program, think about which team menu the program is posted under and use that program team for your reporting. One the Move to Better Health is listed under Nutrition, Food Safety and Health because it was developed by this team. Living Online and Real Colors are listed under 4-H Youth Development because it was developed by this team. If you are delivering the program to youth at schools and using the curriculum as designed, then it gets counted in QPRs under Nutrition, Food Safety and Health. If you are using some of the materials for a lesson at a 4-H Day Camp (not using the entire program as designed) then it gets counted under 4-H Youth Development.

Frequently asked questions by agents and support staff:

Can all the youth be counted on ES237?

If the session is only one hour for each participant, do not enter on ES237.

What information should County A provide the other counties?

County A would normally provide all of the demographic data from each county to that county for purposes of ES237, but since this was only 1 hour that would not be needed. However, all of the data for the whole event should be shared with the Extension Agents from the counties participating for their QPR.

Can County A count all the youth on QPR or only those they (agents) directly spoke to?

Since the QPR reports asks for face-to-face or other direct contacts, the Extension Agent from County A would count/report only those they had contact with or presented to.

As an agent in County B, can I count all the youth participating or do I only get to count the ones I directly spoke to?

Since the QPR reports asks for face-to-face or other direct contacts, the Extension Agent from County B would count/report only those they had contact with or presented to.

If this was an educational program longer in length which would be reported in ES237, the agent in County B would only report the 100 participants from County B, whether or not the County B agent actually presented to the group.

Frequently asked questions by agents and support staff:

Many of the same questions as with the Ag in the Classroom event. Here are potential new questions:

The agent in County C that did not attend will want to know what he/she needs to do with the information that County A sent regarding participation of non-4-H members in the event?

Since the QPR reports ask for face-to-face or other direct contacts, the Extension Agent from County C would not report any of this data for the QPR.

However, for ES237 the Agent in County C will report 15 participants from County C as a group enrollment. Since a variety of topics may have been covered, they may select more than one project area for the group enrollment.

In summary from the example:

QPR

ES237

Two Agents from County A

The 55 youth from County B are entered in a group enrollment, subtracting all 55 participants as duplicates. (net = 0)

Agent from County C

Reports nothing

The 15 youth from County C are entered in a group enrollment, subtracting participants already entered in another group enrollment as duplicates. (net = 15 or less)

Agent from County D
